An overview is here.

This question of whether to run vlc via incrond or as a stream
processor appears to be analogous to the choice of running
ftpd under inetd or standalone. The cursory advice I recall
is that, when multiple services are offered, all under inetd
is more efficient; when only a few services are offered,
standalone servers are more efficient.
Specifics of the machine should also be relevant. In a lower
capacity machine, VLC streaming could impair processes executed
more frequently.
